Man gets five years for 10 years of child molestation

BRIDGETON -- A Cumberland County man who molested a child for more than 10 years was sentenced to five years in state prison yesterday, which is the minimum sentence allowed by law for the second-degree crime, according to the Press of Atlantic City.

Manuel Martinez, 54, was arrested in 2003 for sexually abusing the female victim, now 20. The abuse began in 1991 when she was 4-years-old.
